DT mayhem with Maya temples

This week the children have enjoyed designing and creating their own Maya temples. They used boxes brought in from home to create stepped pyramid temples complete with steep steps (some made from card, others made from wood)

. As well as using card, they used woodwork skills to top the temples with alters and other decorative features.

Some children added treasure chests and the odd sacrifice to make their models more authentic. It has been great fun for everyone and really lovely to see the children excited to create something of their own design.
